This
scene is played for laughs, and is designed to demonstrate that the strain
of pretending to be a normal, happily-married husband & father is driving
Dexter nuts.

Dexter
is unable to drive his car for a week, since he was involved in a traffic
accident, so Rita (his new wife) is driving him to work - with their
new baby in the back seat.

Ever
since she found out that Dexter had been involved in the car crash (and
didn't tell her), Rita has become increasingly maternal (some would say
'controlling' - and 'irritating'). Dexter is attempting to humor her until
he can drive again.

In
this scene, she is happily singing along to the old Boy George song "Kharma
Chameleon" on the car radio (loudly, and slightly off-key), while
driving the car with one hand, and waving a baby toy/rattle with the other.

Dexter
thinks to himself: "This is Day 2 of me being the best husband
in the world."

Showing
signs of strain, Dexter tells Rita that he needs to stop for a coffee someplace.
She ignores his request, tells him he's already had a coffee, and goes
on singing.

He
tells himself that he can last 5 more days (until he can drive again).

But
as Rita shakes the rattle in his face again, Dexter thinks to himself: "I'm
not going to make it."

Q.
What is it actually in real life?

A. A residential
street, but not in Miami.

Q.
Where can I find it in real life?

A. This driving
scene was shot on Country Club Drive,
in northwest Long Beach.

A. This
was a tip from a fan, Rick, who spotted
the street sign on a Blu-Ray disc (it was too blurry to read on my TiVo'ed
copy), and thought it said "Country Club". (Thanks,
Rick.)

Since Google
doesn't have StreetView there, I checked Bing's aerial photos, and the
comer by the park seemed like the best possible match on that street.

So, I drove
to Country Club Drive to double check, and sure enough, I was able to shoot
the matching photo above.

(
I was unable, however, to match the scenes glimpsed out of Dexter's
side of the car. Which leads me to believe they shot the two views in two
different locations. It might have been on one of the nearby streets, or
it might have been miles away...)
